Do this: Melt chocolate completely until it resembles a muddy soup. Baker’s Dipping Chocolate works well because you can heat it in the microwave, and it comes with its own dish (and Mom doesn’t have to worry about little ones around a hot stove).

?
Set out your supplies. If you plan to do a cookie base, place cookie on wax paper.

?
Dip the first marshmallow into the melted chocolate so it only covers the bottom. (If you get too much, the marshmallow may not hold the weight of other ingredients and may require a longer dry time.) Place the marshmallow in the center of the cookie or on wax paper. Allow one or two minutes for the chocolate to start drying.

?
Stick one toothpick into the center of the bottom marshmallow, leaving half of it poking out of the top.

?
Now make the middle. Push one pretzel arm into each side of the second marshmallow. Put two drops of chocolate on the front and place two round candies on top. Lay the marshmallow in a secure spot where it won’t roll, candies facing up. Dip a toothpick into chocolate and draw four “holes” onto each button. Let dry.

?
Using the third marshmallow, create the snowman’s head. First, add a candy nose. Poke a hole in the center of the round side, digging it out a little so the candy will stick better. You may have to push the candy in a few times before it will stay put. Dip the end of another toothpick in chocolate and draw eyes and a mouth. Set aside to dry.

?
When the second and third marshmallows are dry, build the snowman. First dip the flat bottom of the “body” into chocolate. Place it, flat side down, onto the toothpick sticking out of the first marshmallow. Stick a toothpick into the top of the second marshmallow, allowing half to poke out. Dip the flat bottom of the head into chocolate and stick it onto the toothpick.

?
Allow time to dry, then add other accents or candies you’d like to help make your snowman more decorative.
